What Harris Pointe's governing documents say

Harris Pointe is a single-family residential HOA in Garner, NC, governed by a declaration of covenants, conditions, and restrictions. This document sets out the rules for homeowners, including property use, architectural review, assessments, and community standards.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and single-family home. You must maintain the shoulders and ditches adjacent to your property, and install sod in ditches from the pavement back 20 feet. The HOA maintains common areas like private streets and stormwater facilities.
• Assessments & fees: Annual assessments are $25 per lot and $180 per living unit for 2021, with a 10% annual increase cap. A working capital fund of at least two months' assessment is collected at closing. Special assessments up to $500 per lot/unit may be levied with member approval.
• Architectural review: All exterior changes—buildings, fences, signs, pools, and even paint colors—require prior written approval from the Declarant or Architectural Review Board. Approval is at their sole discretion, including aesthetic considerations. If no decision within 60 days, approval is deemed granted.
• Land use & building rules: Lots are for single-family residential use only. Homes must be at least 1,200 square feet (excluding garages, porches, etc.) and no more than 2.5 stories. No mobile homes, manufactured homes, or trailers are allowed. Impervious surfaces are limited to 7,083 square feet per lot.
• Pets & animals: Only usual household pets are allowed, with a maximum of three dogs per lot. No commercial breeding, no tethering to stakes, and pets must be leashed when off your property. No 'runs' are permitted.
• Parking & vehicles: No trucks, trailers, junked, or unregistered vehicles may be parked on lots without approval. Recreation vehicles and boats must be parked in the rear yard. No ATVs, dirt bikes, or go-carts are allowed on streets or lots.
• Fences & accessory buildings: Fences require written approval, cannot exceed 6 feet in height, and chain-link fences are prohibited except black chain-link. Accessory buildings (e.g., storage sheds, greenhouses) need approval, must match approved materials, and metal storage buildings are not allowed.
• What this document doesn't cover: This excerpt does not include details on leasing/rental restrictions, age restrictions, or specific amenity rules (e.g., pool hours). Those may be covered in other governing documents or amendments.
